Unusual vaginal discharge
Common Questions and Answers about Unusual vaginal discharge
vagina
Anyway, the entrance to my vagina has been kind of itching, and when I looked with a mirror I saw an unusual discharge. It's white and looks like it has chunks of torn up toilet paper or like it's kind of chunky. I smelled it and it doesn't have any fishy odor or anything. Could this be a yeast infection? This has never happened to me before. Also, I take tri-sprintec and I read that one of the side effects can be yeast infections.
But when your still young, discharge can vary in color and texture. If it is itchy or sore or smells unusual then you could have an infection. You should go see your gynecologist right away. Has it always been that color? Or did it recently change? Because when vaginal discharge changes color it is usually because of an underlying infection. Emotional stress, a tampon or foreign body left in the vagina, or ovulation.
I meant to say say it doesn't look like a "cottage cheese" discharge. is it still common to get one and not have that discharge?
Hello,
Bacterial vaginosis is the most common cause of abnormal vaginal odor and discharge. It is caused by a change in the type of bacteria found in the vagina.
The exact cause for the change in type of bacteria is still not known, but it is can be due to IUD’s,multiple sex partners or having intercourse with a new partner.
In addition to unpleasant "fishy" vaginal odor, thin white or yellowish discharge from vagina may also be present.
Ususually discharge that has an unusual colour to it would indicate a bacterial infection and would need antibiotics to treat it. It could be a cyst, but it could be something else. Only way to know and recieve treatment for it is to see a doctor. Leaving these things untreated often makes them a lot worse.
Ok, I'm here because i'm extremely concerned for my girlfriend. For about 5 days, she's been having extremely dark brownish black vaginal discharge, to the point where, at first, I thougnt she'd had diarrhea. We had a night where we began (in the "heat of passion") to have unprotected sex, but quickly realized what we were doing, pulled out, and continued with a condom on. I did not ejaculate, so not much more than a slight bit of pre-*** should have escaped.
It's not uncommon to have thick white discharge at the beginning or end of your period as long as there's no itching, pain, or really foul odor along with it. If your regular period doesn't start soon, I'd first take a hpt and go from there, but usually this discharge is normal. Good luck!
Hello,
Such intermenstrual vaginal discharge is most often associated with old endometrial tissues. It could also mean that for whatever reason during your last menses the entire uterine lining failed to make a timely exit. In some cases however there is cause for concern like cervical cancer, pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID), menopause, or sexually transmitted diseases like gonorrhea and Chlamydia .
Nov. of 2011, I had unprotected sex and felt a burning sensation in the vaginal opening 2 days after. Since then (going on 10 weeks now) I've had an intermittent but persistent on and off burning sensation, not when urinating, no discharge, no blisters/patches, no itching, redness, or any other symptoms other than burning. Was examined and tested for other STDs and vaginal yeast/bacteria, UTI - all negative. The Obgyn couldn't see anything unusual.
Recently I have been experiencing vaginal discharge that resembles lotion, and sometimes has gel-like clumps of mucus in it, it does not have any unusual odor and is not accompanied by any burning but sometimes provokes a little itchiness. I occasionally get waves of cramping or spasms in my vagina that almost feel as if I can feel the discharge moving downward. I have had a Skyla IUD for about two years and don't remember having this type of discharge yet with the Skyla.
i am having a unusual discharge sometimes, all theese days whn i am having sexual intousorse my discharge does not have any kind of odour or ne thing,
